Josh Gregg continues to push boundaries with ‘Do More’
21 January 2025 - Grahame Farmer
Josh Gregg continues to push boundaries with ‘Do More,’ the seventh and most anticipated release from his Poles Apart project. This electrifying track is a genre-defying club banger that seamlessly blends house and techno with a captivating African vocal hook. It’s a track that caught the attention of none other than Ewan McVicar, who declared, “I need to step my game up, man.”





[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pkoIfzoIx4?feature=oembed&w=1140&h=641]




‘Do More’ encapsulates the ethos of Poles Apart—a label dedicated to longform club culture and breaking down stylistic barriers. Speaking about the release, Josh Gregg shared:
“This is one of my favorite records I’ve ever made and the first release written since starting Poles Apart. Being fully in the ‘anything goes’ mindset of the label really helped with the creative process, and the genre fusion happened naturally. ‘Do More’ keeps developing throughout and doesn’t fit neatly into one lane—that’s what I love about it.”
Josh Gregg, dubbed the “rising Midlander” by DJ Mag, has spent the past decade carving a niche in the electronic music scene. Known for his dynamic productions and mesmerizing DJ sets, he’s made waves across the UK and Europe, with releases on renowned labels like Skream’s Of Unsound Mind and Yousef’s CIRCUS. His tracks have gained support from industry heavyweights such as Pete Tong, Kerri Chandler, Marco Carola, Hot Since 82, and Folamour.
2024 marks a new chapter for Josh with the launch of Poles Apart, a label that serves as his creative playground. Poles Apart showcases the full spectrum of his musical taste, pushing the boundaries of club culture and offering a platform for innovative, genre-transcending releases.
Stream ‘Do More’ now on Data Transmission and experience one of the most exciting tracks from Poles Apart to date – grab a copy on Beatport.

Reggae Land 2025 drops full lineup for Milton Keynes Bowl
20 January 2025 - Shelley Dodds
After smashing records last year, Reggae Land 2025 is back at The National Bowl in Milton Keynes for its fifth edition on 2nd and 3rd August 2025. With over 90 artists performing across five stages, this open-air celebration is levelling up again with bigger production and brand-new stage designs – it’s going to be a weekend you won’t want to miss!
Reggae Land is the biggest reggae festival in the UK and one of the largest in Europe, with up to 100,000 people expected in 2025. Known for its unbeatable line-ups, it brings together reggae legends, rising stars, and everything in between. The vibe is always warm and welcoming, with a family-friendly atmosphere that celebrates authentic Caribbean music, food, and culture.
Since moving to The National Bowl in 2023, the festival has made itself right at home. This iconic venue, famous for hosting world-class events, has a natural amphitheatre design that guarantees amazing sound. Plus, Milton Keynes is super easy to get to, with great transport links from all over the UK.
“Reggae Land has grown into something truly special over the past five years and we couldn’t be prouder of what it’s become. Starting as a dream to celebrate reggae music and Caribbean culture, it has now become the UK’s biggest reggae festival, attracting tens of thousands of people from all over the world. The incredible growth we’ve seen reflects the passion and love for reggae, as well as the unique atmosphere we’ve created – one that brings together iconic artists, amazing food, vibrant cultural experiences, and a sense of community you won’t find anywhere else. Year five is set to be our best yet!” – JBM Music (Promoters)
For the weekend, the venue will transform into a Caribbean paradise. Think of a buzzing Caribbean food village with over 50 food vendors, a reggae flea market, a reggae museum, a VIP zone, a Rum Shack, cocktail bars, and plenty of festival merch. It’s a proper celebration of Caribbean culture with one of the most diverse and lively crowds you’ll see at any festival.
The Main Stage is getting a serious upgrade this year, with bigger screens, more sound, and a stacked line-up featuring legends like Chronnix, YG Marley, Protoje, Capleton, Steel Pulse, General Levy and Kabaka Pyramid. Fan favourite Gyptian, known for his hit ‘Hold You,’ is back by popular demand, and there’s still a very special guest to be announced.
The One Love Stage will feature icons like Morgan Heritage, Etana, Spragga Benz, Christopher Martin, Israel Vibration, Marcia Griffiths, and Tanya Stephens. Meanwhile, the Carnival Stage is the place to rave, with jungle heavyweights like Serial Killaz, Mampi Swift, Ed Solo, Benny Page, and Ragga Twins. Rompa’s Reggae Shack will host takeovers from Iration Steppas and Channel One and feature DT faves Dub Pistols, Daddy Nature and Uncle Dugs, while dub fans can hit the Dub Stage for sets from Mungo’s Hi-Fi, Mad Professor, Trojan Sound System, and more.
